Jetty Park at Port Canaveral, FL

A Manatee and a Sea turtle, captured in Jetty-Park, Cape Canaveral

Hi my friends,

Yesterday I have seen for the first time in my life for real a Manatee swimming in open waters. It was very impressive to see this protected animal of the sea in its natural habitat. Later on I've spotted a sea turtle peeping out from the water.

is one of the most popular recreation spots in Brevard County. Besides the 4.5 acre family beach with its designated areas for swimming and surfing (lifeguards on duty year round), one of this park's best-loved features is the 1,200 foot Malcolm E. McLouth Fishing Pier - open 24 hours, paved, lighted, equipped with fish-cleaning tables with running water and fully accessible to the physically challenged. Specially designed beach wheelchairs give access both to the beach and pier. A recently renovated and expanded building on the boardwalk houses an air-conditioned refreshment center and a bait and tackle shop.

The turtle and manatee would be wanting to catch a glimpse of Susanne,in the hope that their photo would on the internet for all the world to see, thanks to Sue's skill in capturing, and recording such events, with appropriate words to accompany them.

Our summer has been so hectic, that I am wayyyy behind in reading blogs and sporadic too...but today I am doing some "back reading" of older posts..loved this one. I was thrilled to see a manatee the last time we were in Florida too.

It was not that easy to capture them either, dear Anna....Hubby saw them first and tried to spot it to me and I had to wait until they stick the nose out from the water again.... hooo...it's a hard job to be a wildlife photographer and to chase moving objects....LOL...
